Thanks Hana, sounds lovely. I have a friend who adores fudge but I have never made it. I have promised her some whenever I find the time to do a batch. Just when you think you have a day you can do something extra, the phone rings and someone wants to visit and your plans go out the door. :-)) :-)) Still, can't complain - it is Christmas time afterall.
-
Hana, that looks great. Just like the jaffas we used to roll down the aisle at the movies.
-
I made this last night, and it is absolutely gorgeous! I am not a big fan of hazelnuts, so I substituted roasted almonds. So easy and so delicious. Fabulous recipe.
-
I'm drooling... Adding this to my list.
My butt does not than you hana :D
-
LOL Rubyslippers! My butt does not thank me either :)
-
Made this over the weekend as gifts for friends and it was a huge hit. My DS2 is my taste tester for anything sweet and his eyes rolled with ecstasy when he tried it. I'm afraid it's too sweet for me - makes my fillings rattle ;) but everyone else has thought it was fabulous. Thanks Hanna
-
I also made this at the weekend as gifts - quite simply, this is gorgeous, definitely one for the chocoholics on the forum.
-
oops i forgot to line the dish :o :-))
-
Does that mean you had to lick it out Karen? :)
I made a batch of this using almonds as the nuts and took some for each family gathering. At the first one no one was really interested. At the second one people raved over it.
The mini's asked me to make some today, but I don't have the ingredients. It's rather expensive to make as a monthly treat.
Thanks again hana (every time I go to type that it ends up being haha - LOL).
-
Thanks for this recipe hana: made it tonight and couldn't stop licking the bowl ;D
I ground the zest in the TMX before starting, as well as the chocolate: it makes this recipe even faster to assemble!
-
Made tonight. See how it goes tomorrow!
-
Made this a few days ago added 50mls of Grandmanier in the last 5 mins of cooking. Theres none left! Will have to make some more for Christmas gifts. If I can stop people from eating it. :D
-
The thought makes my mouth water. Yummy.
-
I made this yesterday. The taste is truly wonderful. I did find that mine was tacky though. Perhaps I didn't cook it long enough.
-
I finally found a packet of skinless hazelnuts in Foodland this week - I bought a packet but for no reason, just because I was so excited to see them skinless. I've made enough nibbles for Christmas otherwise I would make this recipe.
-
Sorry cookie mine was a bit tacky too. But I solved that problem, I dipped the next batch in white chocolate.
-
Good thinking.
I've cut this batch up and we just take a piece from the fridge when we want it. If we end up with baking paper stuck to it, too bad.
-
I didn't think baking paper was supposed to stick to food Cookie ???
-
I hope not Judy, because I also have this in the fridge, in a dish lined with baking paper. I'm pretty sure it doesn't ;)
I made this yesterday but I used macadamias instead of hazelnuts because I had already made some hazelnut chocolates. We'll see how the guests like it tomorrow :)
-
Sounds delish!
-
I just made this today - still in the fridge in a paper-lined tray. I cooked it for 3mins extra to hopefully reduce stickiness, not that I have made it before, so can't really compare
After cooking, I put milk in the bowl and heated to 80deg and had a beautiful jaffa hot chocolate (even though it is a hot day) ;D
-
Gosh that sounds good Jo!! ;D
-
Hana, that looks great. Just like the jaffas we used to roll down the aisle at the movies.
;D ;D Wot!! you, too!!!?? ;D ;D
Looking forward to trying these - many thanks for the recipe - sounds wonderful!!
-
Even I can put my hand up to rolling jaffas down the aisle! ;D I tried it with smarties once but they don't work as well unless you can get them to stay on their side ;)
-
Judy the fudge peels off the baking paper when it is in the fridge, but if out for any period of time it gets very sticky. I added the Grand Marnier to mine too. It is ever so tasty.
-
I served this with the desserts at our Christmas lunch today. It went down really well, our guests were very happy to take some with them when they went home!! ;D ;D ;D
-
Same here - big hit.
It was a bit sticky so I sprinkled icing sugar on the dish, and more on top, and it seemed to do the trick making it easy to pick up and hold.
-
Good hint, thanks.
-
Lol I just remembered this is hidden in the fridge :o :o Must remember to get it out tonight for dessert :D
-
bump :D
